Default New Old Homesite!!

Hit an old homesight today and was expecting to find some silver but instead I came away with only about $3 in clad. I did find some pretty cool older items though, a Brass plate off of an old Brunswick-Balke-Collender pool table which dates from the late 1800's to very early 1900's when they change there name to just Brunswick. I also found an old lead soldier, a flattened penny, the end of a baby spoon which may be silver and what I think is a spark plug gapper. I'll go back and pull out the silver coins (the elusive quarter) some other time

Great toy soldier! KT has an identical but new shiny one of those plug gappers in His Royal Toolbox! Good sign on those older items, keep hitting it there's bound to be silver there for ya!
